Burka-Wearing Woman Uses American Flag To Attack Georgia Homeowner

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: A woman in a burka attacks a man with an American Flag.

Believe it or not, that is not the beginning of a standup comedy routine. Rather, it is something that actually happened in Lawrenceville, Ga.

According to The Smoking Gun, 30-year-old Aisha Ibrahim, who was dressed in a burka, allegedly pulled an American Flag out of a mailbox and swung it “in a threatening manner” at a local homeowner.

In the aftermath of this bizarre incident, a fight broke out until a neighbor physically restrained Ibrahim until police arrived at the scene. At the time of the incident, Ibrahim’s only visible body parts were her eyes because of the burka.

Fox News reports police believe the attack against the homeowner, who was later identified as Dami Arno, was unprovoked.

Arno is furious about his assault at the hands of Ibrahim and has suggested he would like hate crime charges filed against her.

“A Muslim women tore my flag pole down this morning and attacked me and my daughter with it. After the fight she was charged with simple battery, 2 counts, nothing else. No hate crime, no destruction of property, no criminal trespassing — nothing,” he said in a post on his Facebook page.

According to Lawerenceville Police Captain Tim Wallis, the department will look into possible hate crime charges.

Ibrahim’s religion was reportedly not mentioned in the official police report and she is being charged with two counts of battery and a misdemeanor.
